Review analysis summary (Reviewed Oct 22, 2026)

A blocky voxel MMO of dungeons, mounts and player built worlds, Trove has heavy monetization complaints and scores 64.0.

👍 Strengths

Multiplayer ranks 446th of 642. 16 reviews enjoy playing it together with friends, exploring caves and dungeons, and some say it holds childhood memories. 12 praise the freedom to play their own way, from flying on dragons and fishing to building club worlds and decorating a house. 10 say the progression grind is fun, with gear collecting and unlocks that keep them hooked. Content Volume ranks 741st of 1351.

👎 Where it falls short

Pricing & Fairness appears in 36% of analyzed reviews and ranks 1262nd of 1399. 53 reviews call it pay to win, with progression and marketplace access locked behind real money. 35 criticize developer support, citing unresponsive help, unfixed bot farms and a marketplace that stayed down for months, and a few say account progress was lost. 29 say progression becomes an endless grind in the endgame, with little reward for long hours. Others mention item duping and cheaters hurting the economy. Tech & Support ranks 1314th of 1399, and Gameplay ranks 1174th of 1396.
